I think the bichon must stand out more on the crosses because Penny is crossed with a king charles spaniel and looked like a dark version of that at charlies age

look.....

I agree with everyone who says he looks like a Shitzu cross. I asked the vet if it was possible to be crossed with maltese because of his colourings and she said it is possible but he looks more like a Shitzu cross. The litter of puppys had four plain white and two with colours Charlies got black patches and one of the others had light brown patches. The vet told me that it is possible for a dog to be pregnant by two different dogs at the same time and that may be what happened as the breeder has over 20 dogs so maybe the Shitzu mated with her too. Everyone keeps asking me if he is a Shitzu. I dont really mind what he is crossed with because he is gorgeous and he is such a happy loving little puppy and a bundle of joy. It would be nice to know though but I dont suppose I will ever know for sure.
